If you think you can keep a pet, then make sure you have the answers to the questions below:

1- Do you have the level of patience it requires to keep and train a pet?

2- Do you think you are mentally prepared? Bringing a pet home is going to involve a lot of work. It also requires commitment; do you think so you can care for them?

3- Do you think it is not just finance that is needed to keep a pet? It also involves proper care 24/7 throughout the year.

The image shared to the post shows how it looks when you just abandon your pet dog. This cage is of a dog who was dropped off at the shelter. The dog had been in a quiet home with a bed and a family. This is diarrhea from having an upset stomach. Can you actually imagine the trauma, anxiety, and fear the poor pup feels? He ended up with diarrhea. Have you ever been so anxious to the point where you get sick to your stomach? This is a 24/7 feeling for a dog who has been surrendered. “Where is my family?” “Why am I in a cage?” “Why are all these dogs barking at me?” Imagine one day your luxurious life is disrupted. You are thrown in prison for no reason. You never see your family again. Did you know 50% of dogs who are surrendered to a shelter don’t make it out? Pets are a lifelong commitment. Do not get an animal if you can’t financially, emotionally, or physically care for one. Newsflash, there is no such thing as a perfect dog or cat. They are expensive and a lot of freaking work. The loyalty of an animal is unmatched. They would never do it to you, so don’t do it to them.
